Executive Summary
4
It is widely agreed that in order for our NHS to continue to provide services for the future, changes need to be made now. In2016, organisations were asked to work together to produce Sustainability and Transformation Plans (STPs) outlining how they are going to develop and deliver viable health and social care services over an agreed area. This also includes proposals for improving services for local people and making the most of advances in care and in technology.
In Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin, councils, organisations providing NHS services and Clinical Commissioning Groups (who plan and buy health care and are led by GPs) have worked together to create our STP. Our starting point was a focus on communities and the need to work at a more local level to tackle the causes of poor health.
The challenges we face are similar to those being experienced across the country. Demand on services continues to rise and outstrips the available funding, putting pressure on all services, especially hospitals, GP surgeries and social care. With agrowing number of elderly people in our population, many having more than one long-term health condition, there is a greater need for certain services. Much of the area we cover is rural and that also presents problems.
There is not enough money for us to continue as we are and we need to make changes to take full advantage of recent rapid progress in treatments and technology. Together we are trying to find where £74 million could potentially be used differentlyand more effectively to provide more care for the same money. Added to the proposals NHS providers have for saving £62 million through efficiency improvements, we should be in a good position at the end of the next five years to have services which are sustainable in the long term as well as meeting the public’s healthcare needs more effectively.
Together we are coming up with proposals to ensure people get the best treatment – whenever and wherever they need it. This involves looking at how existing services can be provided differently and how best we can share patient information to improve services. We have needed to take into account difficulties in recruiting nurses, doctors and other medical staff, particularly given our location.
The causes of poor health are rooted in our communities so this is where we need to focus. Making the most of the skills of local people and organisations, supporting people to lead healthier lives, and promoting self-care are beneficial in their own right, as well as relieving pressure on the healthcare system. This is why our STP focuses on a more joined-up way of working, based on smaller areas we are calling neighbourhoods to prevent ill health and promote the support that local communities already offer.

Executive Summary
5
These neighbourhoods would be used as the basis for providing health and care services for people who need professional help, but not hospital treatment. GPs, social care, community nurses, therapists and mental health workers would increasingly work together to provide a consistent range of services at a local level. These Neighbourhood Care Teams would be the first port of call for people with diabetes and other long-term conditions people who might otherwise have to go to hospital but who don’t need emergency services; and people who have recently been discharged from hospital. They would be the link between clinical and community care.
For patients who do need hospital care, we propose to create two centres of excellence, one specialising in emergency care and the other in routine surgery or planned care. We have involved 300 clinicians in developing the proposals for hospital services because they know what is best for their patients. Our aim is to improve the outcome for patients by using consultants and other resources most effectively. One central emergency centre would work closely with more local urgent care services. Most assessment, diagnosis and follow-up would be done closer to people’s homes. Neighbourhood Care Teams would play an important role in this.
All organisations have agreed to work together to make sure the STP works in the best interests of local people. We want to ensure that the approximately 470,000 people living in Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin understand these proposed changes, and are involved in designing new services. That is crucial to their success. We are committed to listening to local people and learning from feedback.
We believe that making these changes would deliver clinical improvements and make the experience of using services better for patients. Communities themselves would be able to support vulnerable people, with the professional backing of Neighbourhood Care Teams where required. Fewer people would need to go to hospital, and those who do would be discharged quicker.
The proposed changes to the organisation of hospitals, with more resources dedicated to emergency care and planned surgery, would improve clinical care and reduce waiting times.
We have all vowed to work together to reduce duplication, freeing up resources to consistently provide the best possible care. Working together in this way across NHS, social care and the voluntary sector will ensure the best outcomes for the people of Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin.

The causes of ill health are similar to many other areas Life expectancy rates overall have improved steadily in last decade across the footprint, although rates in Telford & Wrekin remain significantly
worse than average and worse then those in Shropshire
60% of early deaths under 75 years (circa 640 deaths per year) are due to preventable cardiovascular diseases, cancers and respiratory diseases. Early death and survival rates for cancer in Telford & Wrekin are still worse than average
Mental health, dementia and musculoskeletal conditions account for 26% of ill health
A higher than average proportion of adults smoke in Telford & Wrekin, 20.7% of adults in Telford and Wrekin smoke (circa 32,000 smokers) compared to 15.3% in Shropshire (circa 38,088 smokers). Smoking-related deaths and hospital admissions are especially high in Telford & Wrekin as it maternal smoking (21.18%).
Whereas in Shropshire levels of smoking in pregnancy are now similar to the national average at 12.5%
An alarming majority of adults carry excess weight, 71.9% in Telford & Wrekin and 65.2% in Shropshire, which equates to an estimated total of 256,000 adults across the footprint who are at higher risk of cardiovascular diseases and certain cancers due to their excess weight
Breastfeeding rates in Telford & Wrekin are low and excess weight in children aged 10-11 years olds is significantly worse than the England average at 36.21%, compared to 29.92% in Shropshire and 33.24% in England.
Levels of adults are who are physically inactive, 28.1% in Telford & Wrekin and in Shropshire 24% - compared to 27.7% nationally, needs to be improved as it is estimated that almost half of type 2 diabetes cases can be attributed to obesity
Around a quarter of adults, circa 92,000 people across the footprint are higher or increasing risk drinkers and in Telford & Wrekin alcohol-related death rates and hospital admissions are significantly worse than average, specifically for alcohol- related cardiovascular diseases and cancers. In Shropshire the rate of alcohol related road traffic accidents is significantly higher than the national average.
Levels of diabetes have increased rapidly across the footprint in the past decade with the recorded prevalence doubling between 2004/05 and 2014/15 (from 3.5% up to 6.6%). On top of the 24,690 people with diagnosed diabetes, it is estimated that a further 47,000 people are at risk of developing diabetes in our population due to their excess weight, dietary habits and lack of physical activity.
High blood pressure is a significant risk factor for chronic health conditions and 71,750 people in Shropshire, and Telford and Wrekin are currently diagnosed and recorded in primary care as having

What’s changing?Changes in our population
The welcome improvement in the life expectancy of older people is particularly pronounced in Shropshire where the population over 65 has increased by 25% in just 10 years. This means the pattern of demand for services has shifted with greater need for services that support frailer people, often with multiple long –term conditions.
Changing patterns of illness
Long-term conditions are on the rise due to changing lifestyles; this means we need to move the emphasis away from services that support short-term, episodic illness and infections towards services that support earlier interventions to improve health and deliver sustained continuing support, again in the community. Dementia will become an increasing pressure over the next few years. Our plans for the use of Big Data set out in the Digital Roadmap will help us to achieve this challenge.
Higher Expectations
Quite rightly, the population demands the highest quality of care and also a greater convenience of care, designed around the realities of their daily lives. For both reasons, there is a push towards 7-day provision or extended hours of some services and both of these require a redesign given the inevitability of resource constraints. Achieving this will also require us to improve our sharing of clinical data across systems to ensure that there is no inequality of treatment across time zones.
Clinical standards and developments in technology
Specialisation in medical and other clinical training has brought significant advances as medical technology and capability have increased but it also brings challenges, not least in rising costs.
Clinical and financial sustainability
The health community has to address a long-standing deficit in its finances. The changing patterns of population and the increasing costs of ever improving medical technology mean that without changing the basic pattern of services then costs will rapidly outstrip available resources. The reduction in funding to adult social care in particular is impacting across our system. Close working with the private, independent and voluntary sector has shown that they too are feeling under pressure.
Medical workforce challenges
There are challenges emerging across numerous sectors of the clinical workforce. Recruitment and rostering of acute physicians and critical care staff across multiple sites is increasingly difficult and there is now a 15% vacancy rate in medical staffing in secondary care. Equally the recruitment of GPs, and the retirement profile of the more senior GPs, is making the future staffing of primary care services more problematic; add to this the high workload, and the popularity of General Practice as a career is reducing to a point where alternative models of care delivery need to be explored.
There is an increasing recognition that non-clinical approaches have a crucial part to play in supporting people in the community and that voluntary and community
organisations have an important role.
New approaches to the provision of care

CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
Engaging on the case for changeIn November 2013 the system undertook a major engagement exercise with the public and clinicians under the national Call to Action for the NHS. The response was very clear in saying that the public wanted full engagement in thinking through options for the future and that nothing should be predetermined. Nevertheless, in the light of the factors described above, there was real consensus between public and clinicians about the following:
An acceptance of there being a case for making significant change;
A belief that this should be clinically-led and with extensive public involvement;
A belief that there were real opportunities to better support people in managing their own health and to provide more excellent care in the community and at home;
An agreement that hospitals are currently misused. This is not deliberate but as a result of poor design of the overall system and the lack of well understood and properly resourced alternatives. We also know that around 20% of consultations in primary care are for a non-health need.
A belief that it is possible to design a new pattern of services that can offer excellence in meeting the distinctive and particular needs of the rural and urban populations of this geography - but if we are to succeed we must avoid being constrained by history, habit and politics.
There was also a clear expectation amongst politicians and within NHS England that the health community would finally address
longstanding issues of unsustainable local services and financial deficit.

Our Vision and Objectives
We have a unified vision for our population to be as healthy as possible. To achieve this goal we need to have the safest acute provision, independence into older age for the majority of our population and integrated delivery models; we need to develop shared learning and enviable reputations as employers of choice with a unity of purpose being seen and acted out across our health and care sectors.
We will embed social care and wellbeing into all health delivery and work with our population to establish social capital to improve public engagement and accountability, with wellness replacing a sickness paradigm.
Integrated technology and data moving freely across our system will support a placed-based delivery model, backed up by a one public estate philosophy which maximises the use of public assets to the full.
Our deficit reduction plan will track the transformational process and the changes necessary to support the investment shift into prevention, maintenance, early detection and treatment; this will allow a shrinking of secondary care provision.
Our Vision Our Objectives
To build resilience and social capital into people’s environment so they have the knowledge and skills to help themselves to live healthier and happier lives enabled by current and emerging digital technologies.
To develop a model of coordinated and integrated care across the NHS, Social Care and the Voluntary Sector that reduces duplication and places the patient and service user at the centre, ensuring parity of esteem. We intend to achieve this by connecting Health and Care systems ensuring that data flow freely to those who need to see it.
To work as one Health and Care system to deliver for patients and citizens and develop a single shared view of the place-based needs of the population using advanced business intelligence capabilities.
To develop a sustainable workforce that is fit for purpose, is supported by modern technology, and can deliver evidence-based care in new ways that suit user’s lifestyles and where they live.
To develop a transformed system of care that is high quality, financially sustainable, efficient and delivers on national standards all the time.
To use evidence from around the world to develop excellence in care and pioneering services through the use of high quality research and use of new technologies.

CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
The Narrative There is widespread consensus that our health and social care services need to change if they are to be sustainable in future. Demand continues to grow
and funding is not keeping pace, placing increasing pressure on all services – particularly hospitals, general practice and social care. Some of the ways in which patients are cared for needs to change to reflect changes in technology, changes in practice, and changes in the financial situation. All organisations need to ensure their services are delivered as jointly and efficiently as possible. This Plan sets out how we aim to achieve this in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin over the next five years.
The causes of poor health are rooted in our communities and as such the solutions need to be community based. Making the most of the skills and assets of local people and organisations (community resilience); supporting people to lead healthier lives (prevention); and promoting self-care are beneficial in their own right as well as relieving pressure on the NHS and social care. The starting point for our Plan, therefore, is to focus on fifteen neighbourhoods and provide a consistent approach to preventing ill health, as well as promoting the support that these local communities already offer to individuals
The same neighbourhood structure will be used as a basis for providing health and care services for people who need professional help but for whom hospital is not necessary. GPs, social care, community nurses and therapists, community mental health workers and learning disability practitioners will increasingly work together as a single team to provide a consistent range of services at a local level. These Neighbourhood Teams will be the first port of call for people with diabetes and other chronic conditions; for people who might otherwise have to go to hospital but who do not need emergency services; and for people who have recently been discharged from hospital.
For patients who do need hospital care, either because it is an emergency or because they need planned surgery or other treatment, the Plan creates two centres of expertise, one specialising in emergency care and the other in routine surgery or planned care. This aims to give better clinical outcomes by making best use of relatively scarce consultant time, as well as making financial sense. Specialist mental health and orthopaedic services will also be available locally.
Explaining all these changes to local people and involving them in the design of the new services will be crucial to their success. The focus of other work -on the use of technology; the development of the workforce; and the use of the estate - must support the development of neighbourhoods and changes to hospital care.
All organisations have agreed to work together to implement the Plan in acknowledgement that it is in the best interests of local people. However, the financial position is sufficiently serious that these changes to services will not, on their own, solve the problem and so the Plan also has a range of other actions that will need to be taken.
13
CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
The priorities for Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin
To develop and implement a model for Neighbourhood working based upon:
Supporting individual communities to become more resilient. The causes of poor health are rooted within our communities and as such the solutions need to be community-based. Enhancing the assets and skills of local people and organisations, we will capitalise on the power of this rich source of social support to build individual and community resilience.
Supporting people to stay healthy. We will support people to lead healthier lives, empower patients through technology; and promote self-care in order to reduce the demand and dependency on our public services. Lifestyle patterns are complex and often interlinked and a combination of unhealthy lifestyle choices increases people’s risk exponentially. It is estimated that middle aged people with a combination of unhealthy lifestyles are 4 times more likely to die in their next decade than those leading healthier lifestyles.
Developing Neighbourhood Care Teams. Preventing unplanned admissions to hospital and proactively supporting discharge from hospital are essential features of neighbourhood working. We will provide a quicker response from professionals at times of crisis to assess and treat patients in their own homes and provide short term therapy support to ensure people remain as independent as possible. People with long term health conditions will be supported to live their life to their full potential. We will ensure that health professionals and other local resources work together to seek out those who would most benefit as well as ensuring that patients can understand and, as far as possible, manage their own condition.
The community bed review. Neighbourhood working will require some access to locally provided beds for patients. At present these are provided through community hospitals, local authorities and care homes. As Neighbourhood working develops, the local provision of beds will be reviewed. The development and use of “virtual wards” will provide the vehicle for this initiative.
Acute reconfiguration. The Future Fit model for acute hospital care describes an urgent care network, within which one central emergency centre works closely with two urban urgent care centres and a number of rural services where urgent care is provided on a locality basis. For planned care, a central diagnostics and treatment centre will provide 80% of planned surgery whilst the majority of assessment, diagnosis and follow up will be performed closer to peoples’ homes
Understand our secondary care expenditure. Shropshire appears to commission a high level of some treatments in comparison with the rest of England. Orthopaedic and musculo-skeletal (MSK) services is one such area. This service is organised across three hospital sites and through a number of therapy services. The MSK and orthopaedic review has been commissioned to ensure that the service is appropriate and as effective as possible. Other reviews will follow.
To continue to develop our other services
Services for people with mental ill-health or a learning disability; services for children; and cancer services are also developing rapidly. Mental health and Learning Disabilities are core to the development of Neighbourhood teams and will play a key role in the work of local teams. Psychiatric liaison and other specialist services such as Perinatal will play a an important role in ensuring that admissions to the acute hospitals are minimised. The health and care community is committed to ensuring that these continue to provide high quality care and are developed within the same philosophy as other services.
To make best use of our resources
Financial sustainability. The health and care community faces very significant financial challenges over the next few years. These have to be addressed whilst safeguarding the quality of services.
Reducing duplication. There is potential to reduce costs without affecting service provision by rationalising organisations, back office functions and estate costs; and by greater exploitation of IM&T

CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
How will these priorities benefit patients?We believe that achieving the changes this STP describes will deliver improvements in patient safety , clinical effectiveness and patient experience. In particular, changes to the configuration of hospitals will ensure that the concentration of resources dedicated to emergency care and planned surgery will improve clinical quality and enable constitutional standards for waiting times to be met.
The development of Neighbourhood working aims to change the emphasis in the relationship between the public and the NHS so that communities are able to support vulnerable people, with the professional backing of Neighbourhood Teams where required. Neighbourhood working also aims to ensure that many people will no longer need to go to hospital and that delays to hospital discharge will be minimised.
The unwarranted variations in clinical outcomes highlighted in the “Right Care” evidence packs tells us that we need to address the clinical effectiveness of the pathways we deliver. We will aim to deliver consistently high standards of care and to learn from best practice elsewhere, through, for example, RJAH’s involvement in Getting it Right First Time
As expressed through our vision and objectives we aim to work collectively to deliver evidence based care and reduce duplication. This will happen as a result of the workforce developments and transformed systems of care which release capacity to consistently deliver care in line with constitutional standards. The objective of developing co-ordinated and integrated care across NHS , Social care and the Voluntary sector will address the quality concerns we have when patients experience delays in their journeys such as those measured through Delayed Transfer of Care data.
To improve patient experience , we are committed to listening and learning from feedback . Central to this will be the continued involvement of patients in service developments both large scale such as the engagement programme around Future Fit or as panel members on pathway review groups. The development of a systematic approach to involving local people is an aim in our 90 day plan.

The HWB Strategies provide our vision: to be the healthiest, most fulfilled people in the country. To achieve this goalwe need to replace the ill health paradigm with wellness and deliver place-based integrated health, care andcommunity models that support independence into older age for the majority of our population. Integrated technologyand data moving freely across our system will support the placed-based delivery models, backed up by an asset basedapproach and a one public estate philosophy which maximises the use of community and public assets to the full. Thesetransformational changes will not only deliver better health outcomes for our communities but will support aninvestment shift into prevention, maintenance, early detection and treatment and reduce demand for secondary careprovision, releasing hospital specialists’ capacity to focus on the acutely unwell . This will only be achievable by workingclosely with our communities; by helping people take control of their own health and supporting communities todevelop social action and resilience.
Together, we have recognised the opportunities for creating new ways of delivering care and front line services andalso joining up social action, prevention activities and the currently fragmented care system to develop a wellnessfocussed and person centred system for our local population. We are now developing effective, collaborativerelationships around this shared purpose that will enable us to move at scale and pace to deliver fundamental change.
Our neighbourhood care model will remove existing barriers to integration and bring together primary, community andmental health services and learning disabilities with local authority, voluntary and the independent care sector todeliver the right care in the right place and maximise the efficiency and effectiveness of local services. Our vision putsthe needs of patients at the centre of our Neighbourhood model. This will operate in a more efficient, focused manner,steering away from bed based services to a more community centred style of care.
Together, we will replace the transactional nature of care provision across multiple teams and providers withintegrated, flexible, responsive health and care teams, focussed on locality priorities and needs, providing ourcommunities with the optimal outcome in the best value care setting. Our objective is to break down traditionalboundaries between primary care, community and mental health services through the development of the Multi-Speciality Community Provider (MCP) model of care within our Neighbourhoods. We will focus on prevention andwellbeing by promoting shared management and self-care, allowing patients to continue living independently athome. We aim to move care out of hospitals to the community, wherever possible, and enable better access to, andcontinuity of care by aligning primary, community and mental health health and care teams, breaking down theexisting barriers and providing integrated solutions to deliver improved health outcomes for our population. This willenhance clinical and service quality allowing more patients to be managed in the community. These expanded multi-disciplinary and multi sector community-based team will be complemented by the development of new clinical roles tocoordinate care for people with frailty and long-term conditions.
As we work together to improve the health and wellbeing of local people and to transform services, we want to also increase health equity. Not only is this an ethical imperative, it is also a financial one. Those in the poorest communities experience the worst health, largely due to the impact of social conditions on preventable risk factors such as smoking and obesity. To reduce premature mortality, narrow inequalities and improve health, there is a need to tackle both the preventable causes of ill health and the ‘causes of the causes’. Key messages from the Marmot Review (2010) that we will apply as part of this approach are:‘Proportionate universalism’ - the scale and intensity of our actions will be proportionate to the level ofdisadvantage‘Health through public policy’ - we will use the policy levers available to us, through local government, theNHS, public and private provision, and communities, to support our prevention objectives
CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
Our ambition is to work together in a person centred approach to reduce the need for treatment in our local population and to effectively treat in the lowest cost appropriate setting.
We have recognised that our future care system will need to be very different to current models of care and our Partnership’s new care model for the future provides an opportunity to create a national exemplar of integrated, high quality, fit for the future Out of Hospital services. We aspire to create a Multi Specialty Community Provider as a vehicle for joint working as the removal of organisational boundaries will allow us to move away from a transactional based activity focus to an outcome delivery and improvement focus and will facilitate patient access to the right service, first time from the full range of health and social care services.
Case study: How community support for carers can support both the cared for and the carer“I had difficulty in getting [father] to the doctor, as he was in denial that there was anything wrong with him … [father eventually] agreed to attend the memory clinic … specialist doctor … diagnosed Alzheimer’s, offered medication, brain scan promised monitoring follow up appointments with the mental health nurse and suggested I get power of attorney. Good advice, but there it ended, no further support was offered at this point, or any suggestion of where support and guidance could be sought, and it was some months before I heard from that service again. I am an only child so the responsibility was all mine.” (Nar. 4).Fortunately this carer happened upon a display by the Alzheimer’s Society and they made contact with them, which relieved a lot of stress and provided support. The stress relief manifested through a variety of factors, but being listened to and venting emotions appears crucial.“Straight away, I felt understood and supported and could ask silly questions and felt less alone … advice on practical things (useful aids, strategies and finances) … ‘Singing for the Brain’ sessions … sharing my experience with other carers …opportunity to share experiences an concerns and relief of bottled up emotions which are hard to share with family members as guilt and helplessness gets in the way.” (Nar. 4).

The Neighbourhood programmes will focus on identifying opportunities where transformation can provide holistic care for patients and service users. One in three people with a long term condition also have a mental health concern. Addressing mental health as part of the overall health of people will be vital in reducing demand on services. Many community led schemes can support people, even with enduring mental health concerns. To support this ambition, there will be an enhanced IAPT service.
Case Study – mental health/emotional care: Giles has been using mental health services continuously since 1999. During this time he has had four admissions with in-patient services. Throughout the past 16 years he has constantly struggled with his mental health problems and engaged in regular self harming as a coping strategy…Immediately prior to joining the Shropshire Wild Teams Giles was isolated and inactive and remained in his house for the majority of the week. He would keep his curtains closed throughout the day. When leaving the house he felt paranoia towards others. Giles reports he would regularly self-harm by cutting up to three times a week. CMHT intervention required weekly visits to his home to ensure his safety and to provide therapeutic support (above details collaborated by his current CMHT team). Since joining the Shropshire Wild Teams his situation has changed dramatically. He has not self harmed since joining the group and no longer requires weekly CMHT home visits. Giles reports his consultant psychiatrist commented that the SWT project was “just the sort of thing needed.” Giles reports how much his mood has lifted and how the team provides an important focus for him…

• Supporting the development of strong neighbourhoods that can work collaboratively to take action together on health and the social determinants of health
• Needs to be locally determined and accept there are a variety of drivers for change and starting positions
• Incremental and organic change
• Support people properly to make the change (from front line staff to senior teams)
• Empower a broader spectrum of people to support the transformation, rather than the ‘usual suspects’!
• Ensure we are embedding the principle of improved patient experience as one of our improved quality expectations

Shropshire – Community Resilience and Prevention
The Shropshire Neighbourhoods programme will use place based planning to reduce demand on acute and social care services by:
1. Building resilient communities and developing social action2. Developing whole population prevention by linking community and clinical work –
involving identification of risk and social prescribing3. Designing and delivering neighbourhood care models 4. Creating alternatives to hospital admission by providing care closer to home
What will it look like?
Volunteering and community initiatives exist in abundance in Shropshire. The ‘Communities
First, Service Second’ Resilient Communities Workstream will work to support and enable
communities to help one another and promote positive, healthy life choices. They will
support linking the clinical world to the community via developing the 18 place plan areas in
Shropshire to:
Further develop place based governance and delivery – cross-cutting across sectors and
themes
Develop hyper-local directories of activity and services
Develop Networks of Community Connectors
Support community prototyping developments – such as Oswestry
Connect and support the wealth of volunteering and services that support people in the
place where they work and live (these include C&CCs, Let’s Talk Local Hubs, C&YPS Early
Help hub of services, volunteers to support these, local voluntary groups, community
activity)
1. Building Resilient Communities
Bringing about population level behaviour change through a suite of prevention activity that reduces the burden of ill health and disease in Shropshire. The programme’s objectives are: Implement a system wide prevention programme Proactively identify health risk and connect people to the right level of support from across the
community and neighbourhood care model to address that risk Maximise the impact of preventative activity in reducing the demand on acute and social care
services Help people to remain independent at home and improve population level health and well- being
in Shropshire

Shropshire Council – Neighbourhood Care Teams
The Scope of Care to be delivered in the Neighbourhood Care Model includes;
Urgent Care - Supporting people in crisis with access to rapid response care and interventions in their home or a community setting, including MH Crisis & Home Treatment
Supporting patients who have accessed Emergency Care to return to their home as soon as clinically appropriate
Planned Care - Supporting the left shift from acute to community settings, delivered though lower cost workforce models
Prevention and Maintenance Care - Supporting people living with more than one health issue or co-morbidity at the same time to live well with chronic conditions thereby preventing or delaying complications
We recognise that the development of fit for purpose neighbourhood care models will require a bottom-up approach of locality co-production and will involve a wide range of different stakeholders from across our System. We have therefore agreed the guiding principles to support the development of place-based models of care that will deliver consistent outcomes and standards for local populations.
3.Neighbourhood care models
Our integrated care delivery model will be shaped by our communities, patients and their carers. We will build on our existing
engagement mechanisms to ensure comprehensive patient engagement so that we know our communities’ perceptions about what
would improve their quality of life and use their ideas to create a care model which meets their priorities.
Our integrated care delivery model will enable us to use our resources more flexibly across care teams to ensure we have capacity to
meet demand in the most appropriate care setting and respond to variation.
Our integrated workforce will support local GPs and primary care resilience with timely access to out of hospital multidisciplinary
healthcare teams, including mental health and learning disabilities, that are responsive to local need and priorities.
Our integrated workforce will significantly improve system resilience with staff multi-skilled to be able to work across organisational
boundaries.
Our Partnership and integrated structures will provide educational and development opportunities for all staff to facilitate local health
and social care system talent management and improved recruitment, retention and career development
Our information and communication systems will support a shared patient record, transferable and visible to all care providers. We
will further develop our IT and governance arrangements to support this.
Our Population Health Management approach will enable urgent care provision in out of hospital settings, where appropriate, will
support admission prevention and will reduce demand for acute healthcare services.
Seamless service delivery across both place based and whole pathways of care with a focus on prevention, early intervention and improved outcomes.
Integrated health and care teams to support a flexible response to our communities’ health and care needs and ensure local service sustainability.
Extended healthcare teams offering rotational opportunities for staff to work across patient pathways and traditional service and organisational boundaries. This not only supports recruitment, retention and career development for staff but also ensures clinical service sustainability through a flexible workforce that can respond to variation in demand and capacity.
Frailty management through cross-system mechanisms to support the frail to remain independent and out of hospital including specialists integrated with out of hospital teams to optimise patient care and ensure that patients are looked after in the most appropriate setting including the community.

The rural nature of Shropshire provides a potentially positive environment for the wellbeing of the people living and working in Shropshire. This needs to be better valued and harnessed. Equally the rural nature of the county presents challenges of access and delivery that are a significantly influencing factor on the development of the Neighbourhoods strategy and delivery.

Review of community beds in Shropshire
Neighbourhood working will require some access to locally provided beds for patients. This will enable care to be delivered in the most appropriate environment and improves quality of care for patients . At present these are provided through community hospitals, local authorities and care homes. As Neighbourhood working develops, the local provision of beds is being reviewed. The stages in the review are:

Reconfiguration of Acute ServicesObjectives
Progress to date Key Milestones
The model for acute hospital care describes a balance of acute hospital service provision within the county. The plan would see two vibrant hospitals , one being the site for consolidated Emergency Care (with a single Emergency Department and single Critical Care Unit) and one for Planned Care (with a Diagnostic and Treatment Centre and the majority of elective care). Duplication of services would be reduced. However, outpatients, diagnostics and centres providing urgent but not specialist emergency care would be provided at both sites. It may be possible to designate the Urgent Care Centres as local A&E Centres.
The programme is primarily focused on the reconfiguration of services between Shrewsbury and Telford hospitals to improve outcomes for patients, improve their experience and deliver safe and sustainable services in the county. The Outline Business Case will describe the options for the delivery of two balanced hospitals with improvement and investment at both RSH and PRH.
The Neighbourhood model of care is an essential element of acute reconfiguration in enabling the left shift from acute to community provision
The Strategic Outline Case for the reconfiguration of services between Shrewsbury and Telford hospitals has been approved by the Boards of SaTH and the two CCGs. The CCG’s approval was conditional on a number of issues being addressed in development of the FBC
Work continues to be clinically led with widespread involvement and engagement of staff, patients and the public
Department level Task and Finish Groups are ongoing and in partnership with Technical Advisers have reviewed key clinical adjacencies, pathways and workflows to develop architectural plans for OBC
Best practice guidance and evidence continues to be used in the development of all plans and thinking
A rural urgent care prototype has been established at Bridgnorth to help understand the extent to which urgent care needs can be addressed in rural situations
Internal patient pathways have been developed that have driven the facility and workforce needs. System wide groups have been established for 6 long-term conditions to support the shift from acute to community care and will help inform the work of the Neighbourhood teams

The current provision of orthopaedic and musculo-skeletal services across Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin is fragmented and split across a number of locations.This review considers the current provision of Orthopaedic and MSK services and the future service models needed in 2020. The main focus will be planned work but the fragmentation of therapy provision across specialist, acute, primary and community services will also be consideredIt will cover the population of Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin and the provision based out of Shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals NHS Trust and Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. It will also consider related services provided in primary care, community services and the independent sector.
The Terms of Reference for the Review have been agreed and the work commissioned.Phase One will –
Assess current and future demand for Orthopaedic and MSK services for Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin populations and an analysis of how this will change in the light of future demographic change
Understand this demand in the context of available benchmarking data and historic performance, considering demographic and non-demographic changes.
Provide a high level assessment as to how this demand could be more appropriately managed in future in the light of best practice and the implications of this for specialist, acute, community and primary care providers
Assess the risks to provision taking in to account constraints of the workforce, estate and current capacity
Assess the potential of current providers to either gain or lose market share through competition from outside the county
Assess the quality of the current service taking in to account the views of CQC, external reviews, commissioners, specialist commissioners and other quality data
Assess the clinical, operational and financial viability of the current services Identify the scope for any economies that could be made whist safeguarding the

Finance The financial position of the CCCG/Provider organisations over the period 2017/18 is summarised in the table below.
Significantly the inflation/demographic and QIPP savings assumptions made by the three local health provider bodies are fully reconcilable with the financial plans as constructed by commissioners.
In the two years 2017/18 and 2018/19 each of the providers, with the exception of Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Foundation Trust, present a financial position consistent with their respective control totals as issued by NHSI. Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Foundation Trust differs because of an outstanding requirement to address concerns relating to the application of the revised 2017/18 tariff. Commissioner finance plans in the two years 2017/18 also agree with issued control totals.
In the construction of these plans, both commissioners and providers recognise that in setting contracts for the 2017/18 and 2018/19 years, further discussions will need to take place to confirm the precise impact of QIPP savings and also outstanding contractual issues.

Capital requirements A key component of the
LHE financial recovery plan; and
Trust Sustainable Services Programme
is the need to comprehensively reconfigure services between the Trust’s two hospital sites.
The capital costs associated with the reconfiguration of hospital sites has been established at a maximum of £311 million. This sum supports the direct capital costs relating to the reconfiguration of services and also the essential ‘backlog’ work that also has to take place in order to make the reconfiguration possible.
The capital cost at maximum is profiled as follows:
As can be seen the level of funding required over the period 2017/18 – 2020/21 amounts to £269 million. A further £42 million occurs over the years 2021/22 – 2022/23 to complete the programme.

CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
Capital Requirements (Cont’d)The Trust recognises that the availability of capital resources nationally is challenging and so is actively reviewing opportunities through which it may become possible to reduce the scale of capital required.
Within the above diagram, a sum of £20 million is included to support the reprovision of facilities management activities. Ultimately, in determining the most appropriate procurement mechanism for the capital development, it may become possible to source such services from a partnering organisation. Doing so could see capital development being sourced through such a partner.
Additionally, the Trust is also examining possibilities to develop joint venture partnership arrangements with private partners. Such an approach offers the potential to share capital responsibilities and in doing so offers a potential solution (in full or part) to the issue of capital financing. Pursuance of such an approach however is likely to be dependant upon the legal ability of the Trust to enter into such an arrangement. Accordingly, the Trust is presently sourcing legal opinion.

Reducing duplication
To reduce costs and increase operational resilience without affecting service provision by rationalising; Organisations where there is a clear view that sustainability is
served better in a different form, back office functions, estate portfolio; and by greater exploitation of IM&T
The health community has set a target to reduce Back Office Functions cost by £1.8m (inc Pathology)
Payroll, Purchasing/Supplies, Estates (cleaning) already shared between SaTH, ShropCom and RJAH
Scoping exercise has highlighted areas that may warrant further consideration and these cover clinical process consolidation as well as traditional back office.
Reduce costs by £1.8m through greater sharing of functions Fewer organisations to reduce overhead costs and increase
efficiency Greater resilience to support services which directly provide
patient care
October 2016Define ambition for consolidating Back Office functions.
November 2016 Set up the appropriate governance structure to engage relevant partners to develop a Business Case for further amalgamation and submit to NHSE

Approach of the Workforce Work stream
The Workforce Work stream has agreed an approach to integrate with the four value streams. Workforce professionals will be deployed to support the needs of the value stream. For example a workforce transformation specialist may be required to support innovation; New roles and ways of working. However over time the need will change to an Organisational Development Specialist to support teams working together. Task and finish groups will support this work and the Work Stream will ensure focus, pace and that duplication is avoided.The Work stream believes it needs to sit in the heart of the development as opposed to removed from it. We are adopting a business partner approach.

Changes in the acute workforce Changes in the Neighbourhood workforce
Workforce changes in the community (estimated)
The Buurtzorg model suggests that between 8 – 10wte community nurses
are required per 10,000 head of population to support the delivery of care
needs in out of hospital settings. For the population of Telford and Wrekin
and Shropshire, this would be equivalent to 376wte based on the lower end
of the range, 8wte per 10,000, and a 470,000 population.
There is currently a budget for 232wte community nurses for our STP
footprint which reflects nurses’ actual paypoints and enhancements. This
means that the community nursing workforce would need to expand by
144wte to meet the needs of our populations. It is critical that any
opportunity to use different roles or ways of working are fully developed for
example the opportunity that the Nurse Associate role brings or multi
skilled workers.
We believe that there is an opportunity to phase investment in the
community nursing workforce expansion over three phases. We have
calculated that the delivery of the 4215 non-elective spells through
extended admission avoidance and urgent care delivery in community
settings will require an additional 53wte, based on 11 hours community
nurse input per admission avoided (including face to face care,
administration and travel) and also 08:00 to 20:00 service availability to
respond to local demand for urgent care in the rural settings.
2 further investment phases of 46 and 45wte will enable the community
nursing service to deliver the extended range of activities including
proactive long term condition management and targeted prevention. It is
also anticipated that the full investment will support primary care resilience
through the provision of additional capacity to meet demand so that we can
appropriately redistribute inappropriate demand for local GPs and deliver
the right care by the right person.
In order to deliver the clinical model the workforce will increasingly be:
§Treating higher acuity patients on the emergency/ acute site as a matter of routine§Working more autonomously and delivering a more complex case load§Working in more flexible ways across traditional professional groups§Developed to support new roles required§Smaller in numbers Up-skilled to take on extended roles§Required to use new technology to deliver clinical care and non-clinical services§More routine working new patterns of employment e.g. 24/7 on site presence, 7-day working and delivering routine services in theevening and at weekends

Plan to implementation and the next 90 days . . .
Our ‘plan to implementation’ aims to create transparency by working up ‘the effect’ of each scheme - to ensure we have the right deliverables and timing between the neighbourhood and the acute developments. Together these deliver the end game of sustained transformation. This helps to determine the required delivery from the clinical pathways and from the frontline, at the same time as specifying the enabling functions that will be needed.
The 90 day plan widens the clinical discussion, increases transparency and creates grip. This will provide footprint assurance for the transformation of our health and care services.
Most importantly, by doing it in this way, we are creating a ‘frontline to footprint’ language, understanding and measurement – to generate united thought, language and action, and inducing a culture that makes the plan sustainable.
59
CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
A transparent view – mutual accountability
The STP caused us to review all of the schemes, initiatives and actions from the neighbourhood work, the acute plans and the clinical pathways in one place, to understand the interdependencies and the mutual benefits.
Using the transparency of the ‘whole footprint’ we have begun to determine the requirements needed from the enabling workstreams to implement the clinical and non-clinical pathways, that will deliver the neighbourhood schemes and the sustainability of the acute scheme.
60
CONFIDENTIALShropshire and Telford & Wrekin Sustainability and Transformation Plan
Frontline to footprint – making it sustainable
In this way the frontline feeds the delivery of the STP. These changes are
then, more likely, to be sustained. Yet, it
can be seen, the transformational ‘goal’
of the STP is universally aimed for,
and owned, across the footprint.
Each pathway and scheme considers the
‘effect’, timescale, patient benefit, cost,
return, (all captured in a uniform way) so that
the delivery of the plan is manageable,
measurable and founded from a
clinical and patient perspective.

• Reduction on permanent placements of 1 (£26,000)
• Reduction in the use of Recovery 2 beds (£80,000 identified above)
A Social Return on Investment (SROI) study of Bristol’s Wellspring Healthy Living
Centre social prescribing project showed that for every pound invested in social
prescribing there was a £3 social return including savings from: reduced GP
attendance; prescriptions; secondary care and specialist referrals; savings from a
return to employment; and adoption of caring roles.
Non-elective admission avoidance Out patient avoidance
Patients from GP practices in Bridgnorth North and South account for 12% of the
total NEL to SaTH each year. Applying this 12% to the total required reduction in
emergency admissions of 4215 equates to 494 emergency admissions avoided for
Bridgnorth North and South. Of these it is projected that 420 will be delivered by
community team intervention which equates to 8 per week.
The collation of the work is now ‘real’ with
milestones, outcomes, resources and owners
for each scheme and will be qualified and
assessed through the 90 day plan to ensure the
assumptions are agreed and the enabling
workstreams are able to create plans for the next

Communications and Engagement Overview
An Sustainability and Transformation Plan (STP) is a local health and social care five year plan. There are 44 planning areas across England. Health and care organisations in Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin have come together to create a shared plan. Together we will work together to support people to look after their own health and that of their friends and family.
The outcome of this programme will transform acute hospital services making them fit for at least the next 20 years
The programme is led by local clinicians with input from patients and local authority partners
Future Fit will modernise and transform the way our hospital services interact with neighbourhood services to support more patients to maintain independence in their own homes
The design of services will attract NHS professionals and address recruitment and retention issues
Local people with the knowledge and skills to live healthier happier lives

Appendix 1 - STP Compact The overarching purpose of STP is to create a patient centered, sustainable system of health and social care. By implementing STP we learn how to collaborate to deliver
care to an ageing population with less overall resource.
We recognize the work that lies ahead will take discipline and a long-term commitment. In the end Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin will be the healthiest population in the country.
We recognize achieving this vision will require unprecedented levels of trust, cooperation, collaboration, and working across traditional boundaries.
The purpose of our compact is to support this partnership way of working. The elements are:
Address hard issues [“lance boils”] in constructive ways Avoid defensive reactions – listen to feedback Say what we need to say in the meetings not outside Keep our commitments to this group Think and work upstream; invite participation, don’t hand others fully
baked solutions Be transparent regarding data/finances When it comes to the money, align our behavior so that all organisations
have positive bottom line within five years Share knowledge with each other Seek to understand the impact of decisions your organisation takes on
others Demonstrate commitment to this work to our boards and staff. Inform
them regularly using agreed-to talking points. Be disciplined about meeting start and stop time All take responsibility for successful meetings (not just the chair)
Results including system surplus, 7 day/week care, the services our population needs delivered here
Aligned outcomes
Collective power and influence
Robust meetings, constructive conversations
Better decisions and greater confidence in our decisions
More resilience and mutual support
Trust that agreements we make to each other will be followed through
Able to learn from failures or shortfalls and thereby accelerate progress
These outcomes should be indicators that our agreements are being lived and we are willing to modify our “gives” as necessary to make progress relative to these outcomes
GIVE - In our work together, we all agree to: We expect to GET:
